The partnership shows how Chainlink infrastructure is powering institutional-grade tokenized fund data flows.
Transparency is moving onchain. WisdomTree is teaming up with Chainlink to publish real-time NAV data for its Private Credit and Alternative Income Digital Fund (CRDT).
The move brings verified fund pricing directly to the Ethereum blockchain. It’s a leap toward turning traditional finance data into live, auditable onchain feeds. The collaboration signals how regulated tokenized funds are starting to merge with decentralized infrastructure.
WisdomTree confirmed through a press release, that it will use Chainlink’s DataLink Services to publish NAV data for its CRDT fund on Ethereum. The integration delivers cryptographically verified and publicly auditable fund pricing, accessible directly onchain.
The initiative aims to enhance transparency for tokenized real-world assets, a step that aligns with WisdomTree’s broader push into blockchain-based investment products. The firm said that the automated data flow would bring more integrity and accessibility to fund information, allowing investors and DeFi protocols to interact with verified pricing in real time.
CRDT, which launched in September 2025, tracks the Gapstow Private Credit and Alternative Income Index and offers exposure to diversified private credit and alternative income assets. By publishing NAV data onchain, the fund allows for potential smart contract integrations across DeFi platforms.
According to the announcement, the collaboration represents the first live implementation of onchain NAV transparency for a regulated tokenized private credit fund. It’s designed to enable institutional platforms and DeFi applications to reference verified fund data without depending on traditional intermediaries.
Maredith Hannon, Head of Business Development for Digital Assets at WisdomTree, said the initiative reinforces the company’s vision of merging regulated investment products with blockchain infrastructure. She described the integration as a way to strengthen trust and support responsible DeFi innovation through transparent data practices.
Chainlink co-founder Sergey Nazarov said that WisdomTree’s integration demonstrates how decentralized data infrastructure is now powering institutional fund workflows. He added that such collaborations show how asset managers can operate tokenized funds using blockchain-native systems for price verification and reporting.
The new setup allows NAV data from CRDT to flow automatically to Ethereum via decentralized oracle networks, ensuring cryptographic verification. With this feed now live, DeFi protocols can use WisdomTree’s fund pricing directly in smart contracts, potentially unlocking automated lending, yield aggregation, and portfolio management features.
WisdomTree’s collaboration with Chainlink is expected to expand beyond CRDT, with future integrations across its broader range of tokenized funds. The company described this as part of its roadmap to bring regulated assets into digital finance ecosystems.
